Sacramento County honors posted No Soliciting and No Trespassing signs. Solicitors who ignore signs can be cited for trespass under Penal Code 602 in addition to county peddler violations.
A clearly posted No Soliciting or No Trespassing sign at a driveway, gate, or front door gives notice under California Penal Code 602(o) and 602.8 that entry for commercial solicitation is unauthorized. Sacramento County peddler ordinances also require solicitors to immediately leave premises when asked. Violations can be prosecuted as infractions or misdemeanors. Residents may also file complaints with the Sheriffs non-emergency line, the California Attorney General for DNC violations, or the FTC for robocall or deceptive practices.
